Google Followers (Non-Blogging Sites)

Thanks to Bev for this little bit of news, which she saw on Fleur's blog.  So.... just in case Google decides to remove their Followers widget, I have installed one from Linky. 

Please would my existing followers join my blog via the Linky Followers widget too, as I would dearly like to keep in touch in case the Google one goes.  Any newbies, please follow both at this stage... Thanks.

As a precaution you may want to install the Linky Followers widget yourself.  Here is the link http://www.linkyfollowers.com/

Simply Magnolia (DT) - Colour Combination

Happy Sunday friends and welcome to another challenge at the Simply Magnolia blog..... It's the fun place where all Maggie stamp lovers meet.  If you're visiting for the first time, we'd love for you to play along, as we have some awesome companies sponsoring our challenges.

We have a colour combination this fortnight... It's Red and/or Pink and White.   What a stunning combination.   Please pop along to the challenge blog as our DT sisters have created some stunning projects for your inspiration.

I couldn't resist using Cupid Tilda... she is adorable and just perfect for a Valentine's card.  You can purchase her from  our wonderful sponsor this fortnight, Tilda's Town.

Here's another view of my card, so that you can get a glimpse of the inside.  The beautiful spotted pink and heart paper was a gift from my friend Sandra.  I just knew it would come in handy for one of my DT projects.  Thanks so much Sandra. 

Tilda has been coloured with my trusty ol' Copics and I am so pleased with the pleats of her dress this time.  Just seemed to have worked for a change.

I love this view as it gives such a clear picture of the dimension glaze I've used on those red hearts at the tip of Cupid Tilda's arrows and also of the bow itself.  The sentiment is a ticket-shaped one from Kaiser Kraft.

Welcome to some new faces in my Followers list. I am so pleased you found something of interest here at Sharon's Kardz Korner.  Thanks to the regulars and newbies for popping by. I would be delighted if you'd leave a comment, as I have great pleasure in reading them.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.  I hope you have a wonderful week ahead.

Hugs and blessings, Sharon xx

Totally Gorjuss (DT) - Lurve

Welcome to another Saturday challenge at Totally Gorjuss.  Have we got a lovely one for you this week.... With Valentine's Day only a few days away, we'd like you to show some Lurve when making your card.

I've gone for the clean and simple look this week... thought I would give the Magnolia's and Copics a rest.  Please see what gorgeous creations our DT sisters have created for your inspiration.

I found some kraft cardstock in my drawer and thought I would use that as the background for a change. Love the MS heart border punch, which I use far too seldom. Nothing fancy, a heart nestie, ticket sentiment and that's all you need.

Our sponsor this week is Crafter's Companion... Do visit them for all your crafty needs.



Happy crafting and have a super weekend.

Thinking of You today, Daddy

Thinking of you today Daddy, as it would have been your 77th birthday. Thank you so much for the wonderful memories you've left behind.  We love and miss you terribly, but know that you are in a better place.  I bet they're having a huge party for you in Heaven right now!

Forever in our hearts. Love Sharon, Kendall and Mom xoxox

Totally Gorjuss (DT) - A Sketch

Hello everyone

It's Saturday and that means we have another super challenge for you at Totally Gorjuss.    Net has provided us with a fabulous sketch to work with...

Isn't it a lovely one?  The Gorjusettes have come up with some wonderful creations for your inspiration, so do play along with us this week...

The gorgeous image is Tilda With Wrapped Heart.  She arrived all the way from the USA this past week and I just LOVE her!  Ain't she a cutie pie?  I think it's the hairstyle and that bow.  I coloured her with Copics and am trying my best to get some folds in that dress.  The gorgeous leaf was sent to me by Sandra... thanks so much honey. And the little pink buttons were a gift from Marika.  Thanks so much.

Our fabulous sponsor this week is Joanna Sheen... do visit her website for all your crafty needs.... Remember her P&P is FREE!

Thanks for popping by.  If you'd like to leave a comment, it would really make my day!

Happy crafting and enjoy the rest of your weekend.
